Today I'm adding a sample sheet of the character, "Toby" from "IT" Was A Nightmare! while in the process of getting tees made from the book!

I've added a few samples of the process of the page image
creation for "IT" Was A Nightmare!

I begin by first coming up with the page illustration in question in my sketch book. I call this illustration, "The Super Hero" page, which is page 24 of 40. Once the sketch is what I want, I then scan the image into the computer and begin tracing the image and then start the color and shading process. The first image is a cleaned up version of the scan and the second image is the finished page ready for placement into the book.
